Our students had fun taking a “trip around the world!” this morning. They were able to spend time in different classrooms learning a few facts about various countries. They also got to try a special treat from each other! Thank you to Mrs. Palmer, Mrs. Washburn, and Mrs. U’Ren for helping to organize this fun activity! 🌎 🍬

Yesterday, our first grade students got an agriculture lesson on the production of one of the best dairy products - ice cream! They got to hear a book, watch a video, talk about the steps it takes to produce ice cream and finally, they got to make ice cream. 🍦

This lesson was brought to our classroom through the Ottawa County Farm Bureau, Ag in the Classroom and the Critter Barn.
